Good News! I-129f Filing Fees to be Reduced!

The USCIS recently announced their intention to increase fees by approximately 10%. A major reason for this is the increased cost of processing petitions. This increase is difficult for many applicants given that typical application filing fees are already few hundred dollars. To make matters worse, the USCIS significantly raised filing fees only a few years ago.

Fortunately, this will not affect K-1 fiancee filing fees. Fiance(e) visa petitions are filed on the I-129f, and the final rule affecting the filing fees does not increase the fee for the I-129f. In fact, it actually decreases the filing fee for the I-129f. Currently, the filing fee for the I-129f is $455. TheĀ  new filing fee will be $340. This new fee will be effective starting 11/23/2010.

Hi Folks,

If you wish to post a comment, please be patient with me. I have been getting many spam requests and may have inadvertently deleted some valid comments along with the numerous bad ones. So if you wanted to post, I’ll do my best to get to your request in a timely manner.

In the meantime, I will also be trying to update this blog more often. I apologize for the hiatus, things have been busy. Nonetheless, the DHS and DOS don’t rest when it comes to issuing regulations and so I will get back on the ball. Thanks for hanging in there.
